twitter-ads-v2 0.1.1

Twitter Ads API SDK for Python.

Getting Started

Installation

# install the latest release
pip install twitter-ads-v2

Quick Start

import twitter_ads_v2

CONSUMER_KEY = 'your consumer key'
CONSUMER_SECRET = 'your consumer secret'
ACCESS_TOKEN = 'access token'
ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = 'access token secret'
ACCOUNT_ID = 'account id'

client = twitter_ads_v2.Client(
    ACCOUNT_ID,
    CONSUMER_KEY,
    CONSUMER_SECRET,
    ACCESS_TOKEN,
    ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET,
    options={
        'handle_rate_limit': True
    }
)

# index
data = client.campaigns('all')
print(data.headers)
print(data.body)

# show
data = client.campaigns('load', id='campaign_id')
print(data.headers)
print(data.body)

tweets = client.promoted_tweets('all')
# iterate over until the cursor ("next_cursor") is exhausted
for i in tweets:
    print(i.headers)
    print(i.body)

Types of endpoint_type

To provide a consistent interface, the first parameter of each API method is always endpoint_type:

data = client.campaigns('load', id='campaign_id')

in the above example, load is the endpoint_type of this call. The terms of each endpoint_type are described below.

endpoint_type	description	HTTP method
all	Retrieve all or some of the entities’ details depends on the request parameters from an index endpoint (i.e., most index endpoints have a parameter that can scope the results).	GET
load	Retrieve a specific entity details from a show endpoint (i.e., most show endpoints require an entity id to retrieve as part of resource URI).	GET
create	Create a new entity.	POST
update	Update a specific entity.	PUT
delete	Delete a specific entity.	DELETE
batch	Create/Update/Delete entities depends on the POST body data (normally a JSON object).	POST

Request Parameters

All request parameters except endpoint_type as mentioned above should be passed as keyword arguments.

Rate-limit handling and request retry

client = twitter_ads_v2.Client(
    ACCOUNT_ID,
    CONSUMER_KEY,
    CONSUMER_SECRET,
    ACCESS_TOKEN,
    ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET,
    options={
        'handle_rate_limit': True,
        'retry_max': 3,
        'retry_delay': 5000,
        'retry_on_status': [404, 500, 503]
    })

parameter	default	description
handle_rate_limit	False (boolean)	Set True will check the rate-limit response header and sleep if the request reached the limit (429).
retry_max	0 (int)	The number of times you want to retry when response code is found in retry_on_status.
retry_delay	1500 (int)	The number of milliseconds you want to sleep before retry.
retry_on_status	[500, 503] (list)	The response codes you want to retry on. You can only set >= 400 status codes.
